PortalGuard is an authentication and password security solution that allows end-users to securely authenticate and self-manage passwords directly from a Web browser, while providing administrators with functionality to meet or exceed their security objectives and achieve compliance with government and industry regulations. With PortalGuard, administrators can implement best practices for ensuring stronger and consistently secure authentication.
To keep up with the speed of business, organizations must provide globally and remotely-based employees, customers, partners and vendors with streamlined access to corporate intranets, extranets and portals. Whether they are working remotely or onsite, end-users need to have the ability to manage their own passwords and perform password resets, while IT needs to ensure the authentication process remains secure.
PortalGuard provides easy yet highly secure access to Microsoft SharePoint, IBM WebSphere, WebSphere Portal and IBM Lotus Domino. End-users can manage and reset their passwords directly from a browser, and they have the option of logging in with their Microsoft Active Directory credentials to access all Share-Point, WebSphere or Domino domains.
This whitepaper will provide a general explanation of how PortalGuard works plus an explanation specific to the WebSphere Portal.
